Making and selling soap is my emotional support hobby. Thanks to everyone supporting me in this work!
Oatmeal Milk Honey doesn’t sell out like my cheekier soaps, but it’s a favorite of some who order them in multiples.

I wasn’t considered “the epitome of beauty” growing up.
These days? I’m done letting random people define how I see myself.
I’ll do what makes me feel good, for ME.
And know this: you are under absolutely no obligation to meet the ridiculous, impossible standards the world hands us.
It turns out we are a community of petty kindred souls. 🦋 200+ bars of "Fresh out of Fucks" gone in a week!
"Calm the Fuck Down" feels like a prerequisite for existing in 2026. Let’s all take a deep breath (of lavender) together. 🧼

My feed, my rules. 🚫
I have zero tolerance for comments that deny the humanity of any group. If it’s racist, homophobic, transphobic, or bigoted, I delete and block. No debate.
A safe community requires active curation. Protect your peace and your people!

I made a soap for when you’ve watched the "Find Out" phase of politics and realized you have zero sympathy left to give.
Available in classic and vegan at www.optimisticsoap.com/product-page.... Tiny fuck stickers for those truly running on empty.

Quick. Direct. It matters.
If you’re here in the Portland area and looking for your people, I’d love for you to join us at Indivisible Oregon. I joined last year and it’s been so energizing to be in community with folks who truly care. You don't have to do this alone! Check us out here: www.indivisibleor.org
We are easier to control when we’re divided. Break that cycle by finding your local grassroots group:
📍 indivisible.org/get-involved...
Don't do this alone. Join a local @indivisible.org group, get involved, and find the community you need to keep going. ✊
Mark May 1st on all your calendars: May Day Strong.
We have a chance to show this administration that we the people have real economic power.
No work. No school. No shopping.
Start doing what you need to do now to make this happen.
We’ve got this.
Brilliant!!!
I wouldn’t miss it! I’ve been incredibly excited for weeks!
Thank you!!!
Hahah! Thank you!!!

My soap disaster? I forgot a mold liner, resulting in a caustic leak that splashed batter everywhere.
The result: Short and Ugly Billionaire Tears. They’re a bit stunted and the swirls are nonexistent, but it’s still my classic recipe.

Help spread the word about No Kings III
Help make this a historic day of protest by spreading the word across Portland and Oregon.
Print 3 copies of this flyer
Post them anywhere with a lot of foot traffic

Can’t wait! Looking forward to this SO MUCH!
A few ideas I’ve seen:
So Bad Even the Introverts Are Here
1776 Called. It Said No Kings.
I Cancelled a Nap for This
This Could Have Been an Email
My Other Sign Is Meaner
If I’m Outside, It’s Serious
Those are both so good!
Check your local rules on sticks (anything that could be a weapon). In PDX they’re common, but you can always just hold the sign! 🪧
Easy options: bring a flag (YES. We’re reclaiming our flag) or grab an old yard sign. Get creative—think paper mache cheetos!

Awww… thank you for the shout out!
In Portland, No Kings feels less like a protest and more like a giant, family-friendly festival with a purpose: costumes, inflatables, hilarious signs, and thousands of engaged people who care deeply.
Go on March 28. You’ll leave feeling stronger, steadier, and more hopeful.

Optimistic by brand, realist by nature — I won’t lie to make you feel better.
But today I feel more optimism than I have since this administration began. Cracks are widening.
Keep the momentum: No Kings, March 28. Find yours: nokings.org
